ISS Orlando Show Moves From April To September

For those of you planning on visiting Hirsch at the Orlando show, originally scheduled for April 4-6, be advised that ISS has moved this event to September in order to join forces with The Surf Show, scheduled for Sept.

Surf Expo is the largest and longest running sports and beach/resort lifestyle tradeshow in the world. Last September’s Surf Expo attracted the largest attendance in the show’s 38 year history, and again drew very strong attendance at the January Surf Expo last month.

Roy Turner, Surf Expo’s Show Director said, “We are excited to be co-locating with ISS this September. For years t-shirts have been a mainstay in the product offerings of our exhibitors and attendees. From souvenir & resort to board sports, imprinted sportswear has been and continues to be the backbone of brand identity.”

For more than 30 years, Imprinted Sportswear Shows (ISS) has been the place to see the latest technologies, hottest trends and newest products in the decorated apparel industry. The ISS Orlando 2014 show was originally scheduled to be held April 3-5. However, when the opportunity presented itself to expose exhibitors and attendees to a qualified, potential buying audience of nearly 25,000 by co-locating with Surf Expo, the decision was made.

Jeff Brown, ISS Show Director stated, “We are very excited to bring ISS Orlando and Surf Expo together this year for the first time. There has always been a great synergy between our groups with crossovers on resort wear and gift sections of our shows. From beach transfers on t-shirts to sublimated designs on surf boards, you will be able to see everything on display with this collaboration between ISS and Surf Expo.”

Surf Expo and ISS Orlando are also pleased to announce show badges will allow attendees entrance to both show floors with no additional cost.

“Being able to offer the full production cycle to Surf Expo customers is a big win for us; from art, to production, to finished product, our buyers and exhibitors will benefit from the additional resources that ISS supplies,” Roy Turner added.
